Hearing this, the military ministers in the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion were slightly shocked.
The generals under Yan Fan were all promoted by one hand. No matter how bad things were, there was always the Liaodong Dusi who could dispatch military attachés. Why should we choose the distance from the capital?
However, they are all human beings and no one showed it.
Feng Sheng said, "I obey the order. I will do it right away when I get back. I will definitely choose from thousands of choices and send them to King Yan!"
"Yes!" Zhu Yunxi nodded, "Old Duke, are you feeling well?"
These people are all old. Not long after Tang Hegang passed away, the remaining founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty died one by one.
"Thank you for Your Highness's concern, everything will be fine for me!" Feng Sheng said with a smile.
At this time, the bastard suddenly held a yellow-sealed memorial box, walked quickly, knelt down and said, "Your Highness, the eight hundred miles over there in Goryeo are urgent!"
"Oh! I just finished saying that there will be a memorial over there?"
Zhu Yunxi opened it with a smile, looked at it twice, and looked a little bad.
"Your Highness, but there has been a change over there?" Feng Sheng, as the head of the military ministers, asked.
"It's a joint memorial from Fu Youde, the King of Han, and the Chief Secretary of Korea. The Jeonju Province in South Korea has rebelled. Tens of thousands of people gathered together and started a rebellion under the banner of liberating Korea!" Zhu Yunxi said solemnly.
"I have long said that those who are not of my race must have different minds!" Wang Bi, the Marquis of Dingyuan who participated in the Battle of Goryeo, said, "At the beginning, I suggested that thunder sweep the holes and kill all those barbarians."
"It has been pacified. It is said that there are tens of thousands of people, but in fact they are just farmers with wooden sticks and poles! The King of Han sent two thousand troops, Fu Youde sent two thousand, and in three to five days they killed corpses all over the field!" Zhu Yunxi put down the memorial and said,
"These two killed people regardless of good or bad, and several cities were burned to the ground!"
"If you don't do this, those barbarians don't have long memories!" Wang Bi said.
Rebellion is inevitable. After all, that place is not a close relative of China. It has never been within the unified territory of China, or even farther away. Under the almost high-pressure economic control of the Ming Dynasty, it has been under the control of the Ming Dynasty for more than ten years.
There will be no peace of mind.
The Ming Dynasty's control of Goryeo made those old nobles who had illusions about maintaining autonomy become hostile to the Ming Dynasty.
"I think this is due to lack of education!" Ling Han, the Minister of Civil Affairs, suddenly said, "Korea has always learned from the Celestial Dynasty since ancient times, but has never learned from the Celestial Dynasty's imperial examinations to obtain scholars. As a matter of fact, the top priority of the wealthy families who have been in charge of the country for hundreds of years is to be in Korea.
Open the imperial examination and be determined to serve as an official with the virtues of the Ming Dynasty!"
"I've said this a long time ago!" Zhu Yunxi thought about it and said, "Let's do this. Starting from the autumn of this year, the imperial examinations of Goryeo and Ming Dynasty will be held at the same time. At the same time, all Goryeo scholars who participated in the palace examination will have to pay the imperial court for coming to Beijing.
All will be borne. If you win, your treatment will be the same as that of a scholar in the Celestial Dynasty, and you will be called upon by the Donghua Gate to spread the word throughout the world!"
The most important thing to conquer a place is cultural conquest.
With that said, Zhu Yunxi said to Liu Sanwu and other civil servants, "As you can see from the test questions given to Goryeo, there are no less scholars there than in the Central Plains. Therefore, the questions should not be too difficult, just simple and easy to understand. Regulations and calligraphy
, and don’t be so demanding.”
Unexpectedly, Fang Xiaoru, a scholar of Hanlin Academy, replied coldly, "I dare not obey the imperial edict even if I die!"
"The same is true for me!" Liu Sanwu, the great scholar Zhan Tong, the Imperial Academy Jijiu and other civil servants all spoke one after another.
"The recruitment of scholars is the foundation of the country. Your Highness is so gracious that allowing the Koreans to participate is a huge favor. If it is divided into two volumes and the title is changed because of the Koreans, wouldn't it chill the hearts of scholars all over the world? Isn't it better to be in a cold window for ten years?
Become a Korean?" Fang Xiaoru said.
"Since the imperial examination must not be divided into two papers!" Ling Han also said, "Don't say that you are ashamed of your students, where is the country's prestige?"
These tough guys!
Zhu Yunxi was very angry, but he still kept his temper and said, "They are Koreans even if they passed the exam. If they go back to Korea to serve as officials, what's the matter with Guanzhongyuan scholars? If they are not divided into papers, then after the selection of scholars, the original virtuous people will be selected to be Korea's officials."
Officer, who wants to go!"
Unexpectedly, Fang Xiaoru and other scholars got a stick in their necks and said, "How can a talented person from the heaven go to such a poor and remote place to serve as an official? It's not like being exiled from the army!"
"You" Zhu Yunxi hated him so much that his teeth itched.
These scholars regarded being named on the Celestial Empire's Golden List as an honor that could never be shared with outsiders. Even if the emperor's grandson proposed this plan, it touched their objections.
Besides, not to mention going to Goryeo, they all feel aggrieved these days when scholars are allowed to go to Guangxi and Yunnan to serve as officials. They think that only those who committed crimes and were demoted will go there.
Liu Sanwu was more mature after all, and said, "I have a compromise. Letting Goryeo scholars come to Beijing to take part in the palace examination is a kindness from the court and is even more gentle. However, the scholars of the Chinese dynasty cannot tolerate being wronged. So I think that your highness will not
If you show kindness, you can win scholars with kindness!"
After saying that, he added, "Of course, if there are people with real talents and learning among them, the Celestial Empire will treat them equally!"
"Okay, according to your words!" Zhu Yunxi sighed and said, "In short, no matter what, we must show the magnanimity of the Celestial Empire." After saying that, he continued pointedly, "Remember, let them express their gratitude.
The benevolence of the heaven means that the emperor will treat everyone equally, so don’t make any mistakes!"
"I obey the order!" the civil servants replied reluctantly.
Enke, it’s easier for them!
When I took part in the imperial examinations of the Celestial Dynasty, there was smoke coming out of my ancestor’s grave!
~~~
After discussing matters with the courtiers, Zhu Yunxi walked towards Fengtian Hall.
Since Tang He died of illness in front of the old man, the old man seems to be much older and a little depressed.
As soon as I walked into the Imperial Garden, I saw the old man lying on a deck chair from a distance, taking a nap in the shade of the pavilion. There were two empty wine bottles on the table next to him.
"Are you drinking again?" Zhu Yunxi asked Pu Bucheng who came up to him.
The corners of the latter's mouth were broken, and he was obviously very impatient recently. He said, "Your Highness, the slaves don't dare to take care of it!" He said in a low voice, "Today, Miss Miaoyu gave me a few words of advice, but the emperor gave me all the advice.
insulted!"
"He hasn't coaxed Xiao Fu'er to play these days?" Zhu Yunxi asked again.
Pu Bucheng said, "I just looked at him a few times, but I didn't even look like he was smiling!"
"Got it!" Zhu Yunxi sighed slightly, "Go and tell Concubine Taisun to come over with six kilograms!"
Pu Bucheng already said, "I obey the order!"
Zhu Yunxi tiptoed to the old man's side, took a fan from the palace servant's hand, and started shaking it.
The old man who was taking a nap suddenly said, "Coming?"
"Grandpa Huang, are you awake?" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile.
"Humph, I knew someone was coming even when I was sleeping! I know your grandfather very well!" the old man said with his eyes closed, "Summoning the ministers, what important matter can be done?"
"The country is peaceful and the people are safe and peaceful all over the world. How can it be a big deal!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "The main thing is to talk about coastal defense, Jing Haijun!"
The old man opened his eyes, "Who do you want to hit again?"
"Look what you said, my grandson didn't want to hit anyone!"
"We all know what you're going to do when you stick your butt out!" the old man snorted, "Jing Haijun was originally in Fujian. At first you said he was responsible for coastal defense and protecting sea routes. Now he's moved to the north, across the sea from Japan.
Looking at each other!"
"My grandson really has no such intention!" Zhu Yunxi said, "Japan is different from Goryeo in that it has no land and only sea routes. The Jing navy is now able to protect itself, and landing in Japan is just a small fight!"
"You still have this idea!" The old man opened his eyes and glared at him, "Just go ahead and do it! Sooner or later, Ming Dynasty's wealth will be wiped out by you! Humph!"
"Those are all trivial matters. My grandson knows the priorities!" Zhu Yunxi coaxed the old man, "Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was very happy and learned from past mistakes. My grandson knows it!"
"You're just a good talker!" The old man snorted again and said with some annoyance, "Okay, if you have nothing to do, go ahead and get busy. Don't always come to us, we want to be quiet!"
Zhu Yunxi fanned the wind and said cautiously, "Grandpa Huang, I haven't had dinner with you for a long time. How about you show your grandson a favor today and let us have some food together?"
"I'm old and can't eat anymore!" the old man muttered.
"If you can't eat, eat something. Ning'er will come over soon with six pounds in his arms. That kid hasn't seen your ancestor for two days, and he's so anxious that he doesn't even want to eat milk!" Zhu Yunxi said.
"Ha!" The old man burst out laughing, "That's fucking nonsense!"
Fortunately, he finally managed to smile.
When people grow old, not only their bodies grow old, but their hearts also grow old!
Not long after, Zhao Ning'er came with a few nuns, holding a six-pound bag with big eyes that flickered. The palace lady also carried several food boxes in her hands.
"Oh, our heart is sharp! Let me see it, ancestor!" The old man stood up and opened his big hands.
Liu Jin was just at the age where he was learning to talk. When he saw the old man, he grinned and shouted vaguely, "Big! Big!"
"Hey, what's the big deal? We are the ancestors, please tell us!" The old man teased Liu Jin, watched Zhao Ning'er open the food box, and asked, "What is this?"
Zhao Ning'er saluted and said with a smile, "My daughter-in-law just baked the egg cartons with twisted melons, shredded dried sea rice and cabbage, and sesame oil and yuba. It's hot, please give it a try, grandpa!"
The old man sat down with six pounds in his arms, his thighs bouncing, and he looked at the food box, "There's no meat!"
"Grandpa Huang, you should keep things light and don't always be so oily and red!" Zhu Yunxi set the dishes and chopsticks for the old man and said with a smile.
"You're in charge!" The old man frowned and said angrily, "I've never heard that eating meat is a sin!"
However, after all, it was the grandson's wife who was here, so she still saved some face for her grandson. She looked around and said, "Pu Bucheng, bring us some wine!"
"Grandpa Huang!" Zhu Yunxi sat down next to the old man and said softly, "You can't drink anymore, you are too old!"
"It's precisely because I'm older that I can do whatever I want. This won't work, and that won't work either. Why don't I just close my eyes at the end?" The old man was dissatisfied, "Hurry up, bring me the wine!"
"Do you still remember what you and your grandson said before your father died that day?"
Zhu Yunxi suddenly squatted down and looked up.
This action immediately stunned the old man.
"At that time, you said that we both lived well. But are you living well now? You are wasting your body!" Zhu Yunxi even swallowed, "Grandpa Huang, you don't cherish yourself!"
"We are just having a drink!" The old man couldn't hold on, and whispered, "Isn't this annoying?"
"You are not someone who drinks to drown your sorrows!" Zhu Yunxi said softly, "My grandson knows that you feel uncomfortable, but drinking will only harm your body!"
When people get old, what they drink is not wine, but loneliness.
Zhu Yunxi continued, "That day before my father's death, you told your grandson that you didn't care about your body, which was unfilial. If you don't care about your body now, you don't love your grandson either."
As he said that, he took the old man's rough hand and continued to speak, "Grandpa, look at the six pounds. You should be good and take good care of your body. Wouldn't it be good to live with him for another twenty years and watch him marry and have children?"
"Think about it, if your six-pound son also calls you ancestor, how beautiful you would be!"
"Grandpa, for the sake of your grandson, for the sake of Liujin, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, please cherish yourself!"
The old man lowered his head, pondered for a long time, and nodded, "Yeah! Got it!" As he said that, he suddenly raised his leg and kicked Zhu Yunxi directly, "Get out of here, you are the only one who talks too much!" Then, he said to Zhao Ning'er.
Said, "Let's eat!"
